EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving transports us back to the pivotal year of 1896 during the Cuban War of Independence (1895-1898) against Spain. The image portrays a scene of Spanish troops assembled in the colonial city of Colon, Cuba, for their daily rollcall. The crisp air of the morning is palpable as the soldiers, dressed in their military uniforms, stand at attention, their hats held firmly in their hands. The diverse array of weapons, from shotguns to rifles, is a testament to the preparedness of the Spanish forces. The Spanish Empire, which had long held sway over Cuba, was facing a significant crisis. The Cuban people, yearning for independence, had risen up against their colonial rulers in 1895, igniting a war that would last for three tumultuous years. The streets of Colon, once bustling with activity, were now filled with the sounds of gunfire and the cries of soldiers. The province of Matanzas, located in the western part of Cuba, was a hotbed of rebellion. The Cuban insurgents, led by charismatic figures like Maximo Gomez and Antonio Maceo, had gained significant ground in their fight for independence. The Spanish troops in this engraving are likely garrisoned in Colon to protect the city and maintain control of the strategic port. The Cuban War of Independence would ultimately end in victory for the Cuban rebels, leading to the end of Spanish colonial rule in the Americas. This engraving serves as a poignant reminder of a pivotal moment in history, when the tide of colonialism began to shift, and the aspirations of a people for self-determination could no longer be ignored.
